Abu Dhabi curtain closer
W
ith the title already sewn up many would think the final round of the Formula 1 season at Abu Dhabi is a dead rubber. However, this is far from the case wth the rivalry between the new three-time world champion Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes team-mate Nico Rosberg continuing to simmer. The tail end of the season is proving to be vitally important to the German despite losing out to Hamilton in the title race for the second year in succession. Since the US GP, Rosberg seems to have stepped up his fight as he bids to head into 2016 with momentum over his team-mate. Hamilton has been unable to find an answer to his opposite number in the Mexican and Brazilian Grands Prix, which has certainly seen the momentum swing. After back-to-back wins, Rosberg will be keen not to let his new found dominance and confidence slip. Much has been said about the team orders in the Mercedes camp, with many pundits asking for the operation to let their drivers loose to create a true head-to-head for the season finale. Time will tell if the fans will get the gloves off fight they deserve.
Meanwhile, there are still battles to be settled in the Constructors’ Championship with just nine points separating Lotus and Toro Rosso in the fight for sixth. While these are the minor places in the standings, the importance is huge with crucial prize money on offer. Nine points is also the difference between Sauber and McLaren in the fight for eighth, although it is unlikely the struggling Woking team will overturn the deficit given recent form.

YAS MARINAS CIRCUIT Â?

Circuit Guide
Fuel Consumption
The Yas Marina circuit contains very little high speed content. Aside from Turns One to Four, the majority of the 21 corner lap comprises low-speed corners and straights. One surprising result of the track layout is the lack of overtaking, as demonstrated particularly prominently during the titledeciding race in 2010.
Abu Dhabi lies towards the upper end of the scale in terms of fuel consumption. However, there have yet to be notable dramas at any circuit from a fuel perspective - and there have been a number where this should be more of a factor than at the Yas Marina. The drivers have coped impressively well with restrictions on fuel usage this season so, while theoretically a consideration, this is not a pressing concern.
Although there is an extremely long straight between Turns Seven and Eight, speed onto and along that straight is entirely dependent on being able to stay close to the car in front through the preceding low-speed, low grip grandstand section. The 2015 breed of cars have proven to be easier to follow than their predecessors, with overtaking more prevalent that seen in recent years. However, making a pass will still be far from an easy task around this particular circuit.
Twilight Running This is one of a growing number of races which take place going into dusk, resulting in significant variations in track temperature between sessions across the weekend. Where-as, at a more regular event, ambient and track temperatures may fluctuate by between five and ten degrees, the shift in Abu Dhabi is far greater. This can affect track performance by over half a second per lap which, while
not of concern, is a factor which must be accounted for in an appropriate manner to ensure that a team does not lose its way on setup. An overheating problem in P1, for example, will not be as prominent during P2. Over-compensating for this would therefore risk taking the wrong path in terms of balance. Teams will have Singapore and Bahrain in particular to draw from in terms of prior experi-ence of this phenomenon, however it is certainly a noteworthy consideration.
